Summer - it was very brief!

Summer this year was very brief. It started out well but by the time it came to 2017 any thoughts of last years drought quickly disappeared. 
We had a very busy period with lots of visitors and also media visits. The garden flourished with the constant supply of water and Greg was relieved of his normal summer irrigating duties.  Apologies that this post was "lost" - almost as bad as NZ Post!!
